Only Veggies

Kate absolutely hates fruit. She eats peas, carrots and squash like it is going out of style, but she just spits out any fruit. The only thing that we have been able to get in her are apples. She loves cereal though.

Alex pushed another boy at barnes and Noble today. It was really embarrasing. I apologised to the other mom and got him out of there quickly. He usually loves reading book, but not today at least not with an audience of other boys. The terrible twos are approaching quickly. We took him along with Kate for her six month pictures and he was quite jealous of her. We could not get any of the two of them together. I was completely dumfounded. Ususally he loves cuddling with Kate, but not this time. He was defiantely jealous that she was getting her picture taken first. There should be lots of cute pictures of them separately, just not together!

Side sleeper

Kate is a side sleeper. She is so cute. She snuggles with her blanket and turns on her side to go to sleep. Alex most always slept on his back and now often sleeps on his tummy. We finally have her aquarium installed in her crib and it is a good soother. She still is not very good at soothing herself, but she is improving!

I'll get it

Tonight Alex would drop toys and then say "I'll get it" and reach down to pick them up. It was so cute. Each day he seems to day more and more words. I am amazed at his vocabulary. He is connecting lots of two word phrases. We bought him a helmet for his trike so that if he falls, he will be protected. They are a little tricky to figure out. I don't think that we have it adjusted correctly yet. Kate has slept through the night for five days in a row. I am so excited. She is becoming a good sleeper. Most nights she falls asleep within five minutes. I still have to wake her up to feed her before I go to bed, but that is a better time than 2:00 a.m.

Second Tooth

Kate got her second tooth today. They are coming in just like her big brother's did. She now has both bottom middle teeth. She is a trooper and has not been that fussy. Her hand coordination is just amazing. She grabs at everything and is very busy with those little fingers. She also plays with many toys with her feet. She can move balls and turn on her aquarium with her feet.
